Safety Notices
!
Caution: To reduce the risk of electric shock which could cause personal injury, follow all safety
notices. The symbols shown are used in your documentation and on your equipment to indicate safety
hazards.
Warning: Lithium batteries can be dangerous. Improper handling of lithium batteries may result in an
explosion. Dispose of lithium batteries as required by local ordinance or as normal waste if no local
ordinance exists.
Warning: The detachable power supply cord is intended to serve as the disconnect device.
Warning: This equipment has a 3-wire, grounded power cord. To prevent electrical hazards, do not
remove or defeat the ground prong on the power cord. Replace the power cord if it gets damaged.
Contact your dealer for an exact replacement.
In the U.S.A. and Canada, the power cord must be a UL-listed detachable power cord (in Canada,
CSA-certified), type ST or SJT, 16 AWG, 3-conductor, provided with a molded-on NEMA type
5-15 P plug cap at one end and a molded-on cord connector body at the other end. The cord length
must not exceed 9 feet (2.7 meters).
Outside the U.S.A. and Canada, the plug must be rated for 250 VAC, 10 amp minimum, and must
display an international agency approval marking. The cord must be suitable for use in the end-user
country. Consult your dealer or the local electrical authorities if you are unsure of the type of power
cord to use in your country. The voltage change occurs via a switch in the power supply.
Warning: Under no circumstances should the user attempt to disassemble the power supply. The
power supply has no user-replaceable parts. Inside the power supply are hazardous voltages that can
cause serious personal injury. A defective power supply must be returned to your dealer.
Safety Notices for Users Outside of the U.S.A. and Canada
PELV (Protected Extra-Low Voltage) Integrity: To ensure the extra-low voltage integrity of the
equipment, connect only equipment with mains-protected electrically-compatible circuits to the
external ports.
Remote Earths: To prevent electrical shock, connect all local (individual office) computers and
computer support equipment to the same electrical circuit of the building wiring. If you are unsure,
check the building wiring to avoid remote earth conditions.
Earth Bonding: For safe operation, only connect the equipment to a building supply that is in
accordance with current wiring regulations in your country. In the U.K., those regulations are the IEE.

Features
Overview
The system (see Figure 2-1) is a modular,
multiprocessing server based on the Intel Pentium® II
chip set. The chassis and system board have been
designed to meet the needs of the server marketplace.
The combination of compute performance, memory
capacity, and integrated I/O provides a high
performance environment for many applications
including network servers, multi-user systems, and
computer-aided design/computer-aided engineering
(CAD/CAE) applications.
As application requirements increase, you can expand
your server with additional memory, add-in boards and
peripheral devices: tape and hard disk drives.
